[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1322789] Re: [Toshiba Satellite L845-SP4105LA] laptop fans malfunction in Ubuntu 14.04
Yesterday everything seemed to work properly, but today again the fans began to malfunction. I followed the steps in this post http://www.webupd8.org/2014/04/prevent-your-laptop-from-overheating.html to activate the drivers instead of intel_pstate acpi_cpufreq, and now everything seems to work fine. Restart the sitema a couple of times, and the fans do not spin out of control. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1322789 Title: [Toshiba Satellite L845-SP4105LA] laptop fans malfunction in Ubuntu 14.04 Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Hi, When booting into Ubuntu 14.04, and using my new Toshiba L845, the fans do not start working, or do not stoip working, depending on the boot.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1322789] Re: [Toshiba Satellite L845-SP4105LA] laptop fans malfunction in Ubuntu 14.04
Hi, I have the same laptop and had the same problem , the fans were not working. lm -sensors indicated that the temperature reached 70 ° C. I had already installed the package acpi, who used to monitor temperature in my old laptop, and when I install version 14.04 on my L845, I did also to monitor temperature because I give an intensive use. But when running the command acpi-t did not get any results, and run acpi-V the result was as follows: Luzbelito @ luzbola : ~ $ acpi- V Adapter 0 : on- line Cooling 0 : pkg -temp- 0 no state information available Cooling 1: intel_powerclamp no state information available Cooling 2: LCD 0 of 100 Cooling 3: Processor 0 of 10 Cooling 4: Processor 0 of 10 Cooling 5 : Processor 0 of 10 Cooling 6: Processor 0 of 10 Cooling 7: Processor 0 of 10 Cooling 8: Processor 0 of 10 Cooling 9: Processor 0 of 10 Cooling 10: Processor 0 of 10 As the temperature did not go down , I install the package thermald . The configuration file thermald was unchanged , so fans should start at 50 ° C , which was not the case and the temperature was still high . Then I uninstall the package acpi and everything started to work properly . When the temperature reaches 50 ° C the fans start to run and when that temperature drops stop. Perform testing to reinstall the acpi package and the problem appears again, to uninstall everything starts working again. Hope this helps.
